Kudos to the staff at #Sainsburys for their quick marketing solution after overbaking this morning's loaves

Heroes: Reborn (I hated it too, but couldn't resist)

[Travis Bacon @PoweredByBacon1]

I have it. The greatest use for #ChatGPT:

Writing follow-on plots for unresolved cliffhanger endings of TV shows. So far I've done Firefly, Twin Peaks: The Return and Heroes: Reborn

Twin Peaks: The Return (this took a bit of back & forth because David Lynch)

THREAD: Energy Bill Support Grant. I have just been notified that I will get £67 a month off my energy bills under the govt scheme. For enormous numbers of people this support will be absolutely vital. But it won't be vital for everyone, and that includes me. (PLS RT) 1/

@WeirdBristol He's my dad but not really. Does that count as 1? 😂

@jojacksonhere @GilesPalaeoLab Huge thanks for the shout out Jo!

I'm not great at promoting the site but my wife & I do still regularly add books to it, just over 700 books catalogued now! The site also integrates with the Google Books API for extra synopsis info.

Suggestions & feedback always welcome!

In the run-up to #COP26, remember to make YOUR voice heard for YOUR environment. Tired of sooty air, I measured the #AirPollution I breathe commuting to @bristolUni. Share your commute and tell @DefraGovUK too. @cabotinstitute @cleanairfund #ClimateCrisis @BCC_Clean_Air

[Travis Bacon @PoweredByBacon1]

@madebybacon Yes 🙌🙌🙌

Latest Mellor lab publication:

Looking at how endogenous ACh release prioritises information input into the CA1.

It was great to play a small part in this work. But all props to Jon Palacios who worked so hard on this!

@cian_neuro Congratulations Cian! 🎉🎉🎉 Bristol's loss is Ulster's gain! All the best!

[Travis Bacon @PoweredByBacon1]

@mickcraig101 @cian_neuro +1 for Jupyter Notebooks. They're a dedicated UI for your Python environment based in your browser, so more lightweight than developing in VSCode using notebook plug-ins (at least in my experience)

[Travis Bacon @PoweredByBacon1]

@ashbylab @The_MRC Congrats Mike! 🎉🎉🎉

[Travis Bacon @PoweredByBacon1]

@WeirdBristol Agreed!

[Travis Bacon @PoweredByBacon1]

@WeirdBristol Hey don't downplay it! Congrats! I bet the bees love it!

What have you got in the hanging basket? I love the fire-like petal pattern.

@virginmedia No but I haven't had any problems since Wednesday so not sure if that would work? Seems more like a service outage to me

[Travis Bacon @PoweredByBacon1]

@virginmedia are there problems in the 07 area? My internet is slow and I'm dropping out of Microsoft Teams & Slack calls every 90 seconds, almost rhythmically. This happened last Wednesday, both days my Service Checker is reporting no problems.
